Creating the Opportunity to Learn: Moving from Research to Practice to Close the Achievement GapInstead of "quick-fix reforms" that promise to close achievement gaps but end up delivering little, here's a book that delves into the research to provide you with realistic solutions for catching up students in danger of failing and dropping out. Two giants in the fields of education, psychology, and equity—A. Wade Boykin and Pedro Noguera—reveal bold truths about the achievement gap and provide you with a promising framework focused on key factors drawn from successful schools. Here's your opportunity to understand why some school districts are making more progress than others, to make sure you're focused on what really works, and to build the capacity of high-performance, high-poverty schools.
